Wounded prisoners of war get basic treatment in a makeshift jail in Misrata, Libya. The prison governor, Sheikh Abdul Hafeed Abu Grain, said there were 126 inmates in the former secondary school, ranging from teenagers to old men. Most appeared to be Arab Libyans, sleeping 20 to a room, on foam mattresses, although there was at least one young boy originally from neighbouring Chad. The soldiers who fought for Colonel Muammar Gaddafi until they ewre captured included volunteer veterans with 15-years in the army, new recruits and one boy who said he was abducted, beaten and forced to fight. The prison includes a small clinic where medics tend the soldiers' wounds. The prisoners' identitites have been deliberately withheld to avoid endangering their families living in government held-territory, or expose them to public curiosity, as per the Geneva Conventions.

I wanted to do a piece about the struggles going on in North Africa. Tre is from Tunisia so she was a natural fit for this shoot. The colors red black and green are the colors of the Libyan Flag before Qaddafi changed it to a solid field of green. The colors of red and black are predominant colors in North African banners and are vestiges of the Ottoman Empire; a constant reminder of the never ending power struggle in this area of the globe.

Tobruk, Libya. This North African port was heavily fought over during the desert campaigns of the Second World War. The dead from the battles were mostly buried in the area though some were repatriated and reinterred later. Hence there are big cemeteries and memorials in the vacinity. This view is taken from atop the German memorial. The town has now been rebuilt and is growing again.

Plain wooden posts and handwritten numbers mark the final resting place of Colonel Gaddafi's soldiers killed fighting in Misrata. Rebels have made a cemetery amid the sand dunes overlooking Libya's Mediterranean coast. Caretakers said there were 505 people buried, as of 19/05/11, including 187 soldiers whose identity is unknown. "The unknown bodies were either burnt, decomposed, or they had no identity documents," said Sheikh Abdul Hafeed Abu Grain. "We buried them according to Islam. We did what we believe in. Dead bodies should be treated with respect." The Jannat Cemetery is the newest in a long line of north African war graves streching back to World War II, and beyond. British, Commonwealth and Axis troops are buried at Tobruk in Libya and El Alamein in Egypt.
